Crossover choice question

Archived from groups: rec.audio.tech (More info?)

If I know the tweeter (8 ohms) frequency (3k-20k Hz) and the woofer(8
ohms) frequency (35-2500 Hz) can simple pick a 2-way crossover (8 ohms)
that would direct the frequency to each speaker.
I know this is a basic question. Thanks

Thanks Eiron.
